origin.
Specification: As
per BS EN 197-1 2011 strength class 42.5 N and 43
Packing: Laminated
PP Bag of 50 Kg each net shipped weight.
Inspection: Shall
be done in Pakistan from the SGS, at sellers cost.
Indicative Price: USD 45.00
(USA Dollars Forty five) per metric ton FOB any Pakistan’s sea port.
C&F Quote: Would
be made based on the Container Ocean freight prevailing
at
that time (spot basis) from Pakistan sea port to the desired port
of
Discharge. Any variation in the freight at the time of actual shipment
shall
be at the risk and cost of the buyers.
